Holly Willoughby addressed This Morning viewers on Monday as she emotionally thanked her colleagues in an emotional statement about the Phillip Schofield scandal.
But now fans believe she could have unintentionally nodded to her former co-host's replacements.
Josie Gibson filled in to present alongside Holly on Monday, whilst Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary fronted the show together for the majority of Holly's extended break, reports the Mirror.
Craig Doyle joined Alison on two occasions over the past two weeks while Dermot enjoyed some time off for his birthday.
And on Holly's return, she began the show with a speech which addressed her former co-host's admission he'd had an affair with a younger colleague, which led to him parting ways from ITV.
Holly began: "Good morning. Josie, thank you for being here.
"Deep breath - firstly, are you OK? I hope so. It feels very strange sitting here without Phil and I imagine you might be feeling a lot like I have - shaken, troubled, let down, worried for the wellbeing of people on all sides of what's been going on, and full of questions.
"You, me and all of us at This Morning gave our love and support to someone who was not telling the truth, who acted in a way that they themselves felt that they had to resign from ITV and step down from a career that they loved. That is a lot to process.
